A day at the Park

My Mom and Dad made great use of a beautiful day and took Sarah and Alex to a local State Park. The Kids had a blast and I am not sure who was more tired the kids or grandma and grandpa :D
If you haven't checked out this month's KnK Kit you should!
I know I say that every month but this kit went together so well and really sparked my creativity!!! I did 3 layouts, a card and a small project in under 2 hours! How is that for inspiration!?!?!?!! I have shown you below the add-on kit!!! way cool. and you need the cardstock add-on!!! which has the new Bazzill embossed cardstock!!
And now time for a question.... once in a while I get to help Gerrianne pick out goodies for the kits :D so I want to know what do you look for in a kit? do you like just the basics? do you want a jammed packed kit? do you scrap mainly 2 page layouts? 1 page layouts? and what do you like to see in a kit newsletter?

Knk's September Kit


Isn't It lovely!!! I already have 3 layouts, a magnet and a card done!!! such a fun kit. My favorite paper is the back side of the circle paper it is a pale orange polka dot... Normally not an orange person for scrapping but I just fell in love with this paper. and I used it on several non-girly layouts too! :D Can't wait to share!

Another Provocraft Make n Take

As you can imagine the lines waiting to make these Make n Takes at the Provocraft booth were long!!! We happened to be early to make this one... which is a chocolaty brown that matches my newly remodeled bedroom. They just arrived home yesterday as I had to trust them to Jules to mail home to me since neither of these would fit in my suitcase!!!!!!! BTW sorry for the non-cropped photos. I took these while at CHA and forgot to crop them all nice and neat

ugh Meagan starts high school..and Lets just say I have had 1 or 2 nightmares about her behaving even remotely like me in high school

Happy Tuesday!

This is one of the Make and takes I did at CHA! CAN you believe this was a Make and take???? its huge!!!! 13x 13 ish huge. made at the ProvoCraft booth!!!!!! and I just have to say I finished the whole project!!!! (and Jules didn't hehehehe).

on the home front we went right from softball to soccer season!!! and Marching band season! wondering to myself when is our off season? of course softball isn't really over as they start with a meeting this Wednesday!!! *sigh* repeating to myself....sleep is highly over-rated!
